Stand for God

“David said to the men standing with him, What reward will be given to the man who kills this Philistine and removes this disgrace from Israel? Who is this uncircumcised Philistine anyway, that he challenges the armies of the living God?”
1 Samuel 17:26 CJB

This is how we should look at the defiant world around us, how dare they come against God! The point is when evil, (uncircumcised Philistines) come out against us, we should understand they’ve already lost because Adonai reigns supreme!

“Adonai, how I hate those who hate You! I feel such disgust with those who defy You!”
Psalm 139:21 CJB

This is how we should look at the ungodly world around us that defies God! So when the world attacks us like Goliath, don’t fear, just know God reigns and is in control of all things!

“God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.”
Psalm 46:1 CJB

No matter how big the problems may be, understand God will take care of every situation!
May your day be blessed!

We are all anointed to serve

“So Sha’ul sent messengers to Yishai saying, “Send me David your son, who is out with the sheep.”

1 Samuel 16:19 CJB

David, was just anointed and then goes back to tending sheep! We don’t know for how long, but he was anointed and went back to work until God called him to serve!

“Serve Adonai with gladness. Enter his presence with joyful songs.”
Psalm 100:2 CJB

We are all anointed to serve Adonai, and when He calls us, we need to step up and step out!

Be aware that Adonai is God; it is He who made us; and we are His, His people, the flock in His pasture.”
Psalm 100:3 CJB

I believe that sometimes we forget this and need to be reminded that God made us and we belong to Him!
So have a blessed day serving Adonai!

Do what God says

“Sh’mu’el went to Saul; Saul said to him, May Adonai bless you! I have done what Adonai ordered.”
1 Samuel 15:13 CJB

When we read this we know Saul is not being honest! God clearly told him to destroy all and Samuel is going to call him out!

“But Sh’mu’el answered, If so, why do I hear sheep bleating and cows mooing?”
1 Samuel 15:14 CJB

We all need to be careful of saying we did things that God calls us to do, but then don’t completely follow through, while claiming that we did!

“Obey and pay attention to everything I am ordering you to do, so that things will go well with you and with your descendants after you forever, as you do what Adonai sees as good and right.”
Deuteronomy 12:28 CJB

When we simply obey what Adonai says in and through His word, we will never be let down! When we do we will never be let down or led astray!
Have a blessed day following Adonai!

Give God the glory

“But if they say, ‘Come up to us,’ we’ll go on up; and that will be the sign that Adonai has given us victory over them.”

1 Samuel 14:10 CJB

Here we see Jonathan making his victory all about Adonai and giving Him all the glory!

“Declare his glory among the nations, his wonders among all peoples!”
1 Chronicles 16:24 CJB

We may have issues in life and need direction! Do what Jonathan did, he called on Adonai for directions and when God directed him, he gives all glory and credit to Adonai!

“For Adonai is great, and greatly to be praised; he is to be feared more than all gods.”
Psalm 96:4 CJB

So even though life has issues, simple thing here! Don’t allow the little things become the big things in life! Instead give God all the glory, making his amazing deeds known among all the people!
Have a blessed day in Adonai!
Shabbat Shalom!
